The utility model belongs to the field of heat power engineering and will be useful in heat-generating, boiler plants of small and medium power, in the metallurgical and engineering industries in the gas-thermal processing of materials, in particular melting, hardening, cementation, etc.

The method of burning water-coal fuel in a hydrogen-oxygen plasma jet, in which the hydrogen-oxygen mixture is produced by an electrolysis-water generator, is supplied to an electric arc plasmatron, where heating, ionization and occurrence of a plasma jet take place due to the action of the arc temperature. Water-oxygen mixture is used as plasma-forming gas and water-coal suspension is used as fuel.
